Porridge, Milk, French

Soak two ounces of oatmeal in half a pint of water. When the oatmeal has settled at the bottom and left the water clear, strain off, and add the same quantity of fresh water, which should rest till the next day, and then be passed through a fine sieve into a saucepan. When boiling, pour in the milk, and serve. This makes a wholesome breakfast for a delicate stomach. Time, half an hour to boil. Probable cost, 4d. per pound.
